This was just the start of a great weekend

I have both games on dvr. I have watched the last 10 minutes of each game numerous times. I get mad at that ref every time, even now.

I love watching that stuff after the fact knowing we won. Cooney was in beast mode.

I thought the Gonzaga comeback was incredible and would go down as one of the better all time Cuse wins considering what we had to do to win that game and that it got us to the elite 8......but I don't know if I've ever been as pumped watching a game for so long as I was during that run against Virginia. Incredibly high stakes, and we just kept making plays after everyone had to have thought we were done(I did, and by early in the 2nd half I was just hoping we could make enough of a run at some point to make the final score look close).

I don't think I've ever just lost it for that long while watching a game. I was a complete madman. Great weekend.

No kidding at the end I was standing in my living room yelling "we won"!

That Virginia game...

I said to my friends "it's over. We had an incredible run" down 15 with about 10 left. We get it to 9. I go to the bathroom because in a tad bit drunk. I hear cheering outside. I apparently have the worlds largest bladder. Get out of the bathroom and we're down 1. Then we take the lead.

I knew we were going to win that game from that point. It was obvious that Virginia had no answer.

Was a top 5 sports memory for me. Up there with the Block.

Re watching that steal and seeing where Cooney came from is amazing. Cooney went down landing haymakers against UNC as well. I was extremely happy for him.

The UVA win was one for the ages. We may never see a high stakes game turn as quickly at that one. Under 10 minutes and down 15, I was still hoping they could chip away. Then the tsunami of big plays came and they were suddenly up one with about 6 minutes left and in control. Amazing.

TBH when we went up one vs Uva I thought "OK, this is nice, but Uva is going to on a run here.". Then we extended it to four, then six. I just stood there wondering if this was real.

It was after the Malachi 3 from the right wing to put us up 4, that I was 100% confident we were winning that game.

You should have seen the video of Jeremy dancing around his living room and conducting the band during the fight song.

My wife and I had to watch it twice we were laughing so hard.

An instant classic?

I too had a feeling of unreality as the lead over Virginia emerged... I was so absolutely sure that Virginia would still come back to win that each moment that went by without that happening seemed like an additional miracle...
